In 1990 the college was constituted as a department of the MEDIGREIF GmbH. The foundation of the medical-pharmaceutical college on 29th April 1991 saw the beginning of the autonomous development of what is today the Professional Training College Greifswald (Berufsfachschule Greifswald â BfG). After the renaming of the college, the BfG was registered as a limited company on 17th January 1992.

the BfG is a privately owned and run educational facility

it has distinguished itself as an officially-recognised private college for the training of nurses for the elderly, health care providers, pharmaceutical technical assistants, biological technical assistants and physiotherapists, as well as social assistants

retraining and skill enhancement training for paramedics and foreign language correspondents, additionally German assimilation courses for German resettlers from eastern Europe

the school, laboratory and boarding school buildings in Greifswald, Bandelin and Zinnowitz (physiotherapy) and the speech therapy kindergarten, which was annexed in 1992, conform to the most modern of standards

over 3,300 pupils and students have completed an apprenticeship or skills enhancement training at the three locations since 1990

The excellent reputation of the BfG is justified not least by the highly specialist qualifications of the teaching staff (of 44 teaching staff members, 3 have been appointed professors and a further 9 earned doctorates) and the committed work of all 81 full-time and 30 part-time employees.

The most recent projects of the BfG are the founding of the independent primary school in Greifswald and the establishment of the private grammar school.
